Kelly Zion Poems

Kill me if I die,
kill me if I die
rewrite the second line
and kill me if I die
...

Ghost figure in the mirror
I hope at least the ghost-figure girl
finds a ghost-figure guy.
Oh, ghost figure reflects
...

My backbone daddy has my back
he watches over my bones
my backbone daddy is alive
under a cemetery stone
...

Playing Frisbee in the trailerhood
there's an Eastern American toad!
Bye bye little blue dragonflies
my toad needs energy to climb the trees
...

We box ourselves in boxes
we box our soul inside
it's safer in the boxes
if we don't show that we're crying
...

Go ahead and hurt me,
make me write more poetry
you deserve it anyway
have I not been hurt enough today?
...

Through the skies, stormy skies
come
my love with me and fly
...

Love is like a lullaby
that comes and goes with the time.
Love is like a freight-train song
that tells us that we belong,
...

Alone with the cars, alone tonight
dim lights shine, the world's asleep
and tired, too numb from crying all day
we dry our tears and walk the night away
...

So lonely, sad, and sweet
you've changed our world, you see
you made us so happy,
why'd you die We love you,
...
